  5. First i would just like to say that this, like all of your models, is awesome.

    I know you do the modeling in 3ds max and autocad, but do you use a software to convert the 3d models into a pattern and if so what software do you use.

    i posted a comment a couple hours ago but it didn't show up so if it just took a little while to register it and this is a second one saying pretty much the same thing then oops sorry at least now ill know for future reference

  6. I congratulate you on your excellent work, it is a complicated but interesting model. I like his design.
    It has a very long axes distance to be one 6x6 I do not believe that it is more effective than a Striker...
    You do a big work

  8. Thanks. i downloaded the trial version of pepakura today and minus a few things i need to figure out how to do its working pretty well. i should have some of my own models in no time. (Especially considering that i have quite a few digital models already that i have made in class when i should have been working.

  9. Dear Tekzo
    I only just stumbled onto your site, and wow. I am very impressed, you sir, are good!
    I was wondering, is this a hobby for you, or are these commissions?
